⚙️ Key Features

• Genuine Volvo Penta OEM clip
• OEM part number 20542468
• Technical distinction: Spring clip retaining the specified hose, pipe, cable or small component

🔌 Function

Retains and locates the associated cable, pipe, pin, shaft or small component at the specified position. Inspect the mating bore, shaft, bracket or mounting points; install squarely with the correct tooling and verify alignment, movement and retention.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• The retained hose, pipe or cable moving freely or hanging loose
• Rattling or knocking from the inlet and air-cleaner area
• A chafed hose or worn cable where the clip has released
• On removal, the clip cracked at the bend or without its original spring tension
• Corrosion or heat scale that has left the clip brittle

🛠️ Service Notes

• Fit a new clip rather than reusing one that has been off — clips lose tension once sprung or spread, and one that no longer grips is worse than none
• Open a spring or retaining clip only as far as it has to go; over-spreading permanently weakens it
• Make sure the clip is seated fully in its groove or over its landing all the way round, and the right way about where one face is chamfered
• Check whatever the clip retains for wear and correct seating at the same time — a clip that has come adrift usually means something under it has been moving
